On the last episode of 2017, we speak with Gary Hale, the nonresident fellow in drug policy and Mexico studies at the Baker Institute, about organized crime, extortions, and corruption. What can the next president of Mexico do to combat the rising levels of violence?

The Mexico Centered podcast will be back on January 11, 2018. Happy holidays!
